Technical Specification The Type 48 Seal Famil ‘The primary default seal selection per API 682 is the Type A, mutiple-spring pusher seal that is supplied in single, dual unpressurized and dual pressurized arrango- ments. The John Crane Type 48 is the seal on which our API 682 offering is based. The Type 48 family includes the following seals: + Type 48LP- Balanced pusher seal with plain-face design for lower pressure applications, Used as a single, inboard seal ‘on dual unpressurized arrangements and as an outboard seal ‘neither dal pressurized or unpressurized arrangements. + Type 48HPV - Balanced pusher seal, with hydropad face design to enhance face lubrication, incorporates a hammer: head design to increase stiffness for high pressure designs. Used as @ single, inboard seal on dual unpressurized arrange- ments, and occasionally as an outboard seal on ddual pressurized arrangements, P (Low Pressun + Type 48RP - Double balanced pusher seal primarily designed for 1D pressure applications. Commonly referred to.as a reverse-pressure design. Used as an inboard seal on dual pressurized arrangements and occasionally as an inboard seal on dual unpressurized arrangements. + Type $48 - Shorter balanced seal designed for OD pres- sures only. Used as an outboard seal on either dual unpres- surized of dual pressurized arrangements. ue (High Pressure) ‘Selection Considerations Muttiptier| Factor Sealed Fluid | Below 175°F/80°C x 1.00 Temperature | Above 175°F to 250°F/80'C to 125°C | x0.90 Above 250°F to 350°F/125°C to 180°C] x 0.80 Above 350°F/180°C x0.65 Materials | Tungsten Carbide vs. Silicon Carbide | x 0.50 Notes: 1.

Technical Specification I Te The L-shaped mating ring used for dual seal arrangements is designed to be hydraulically balanced when used with the proper seal size. The pressure limit of the mating ring should be considered along with the seal head pressure limit when selecting dual seal arrangements.
